<p>The invention relates to a device for condensing, separating, and storing sulfur in a Claus plant, wherein the Claus plant comprises a Claus furnace, a waste heat boiler, and a Claus reactor, and said plant parts are supported on a floor or a comparable device, and an immersion chamber is provided below the Claus plant and optionally also below a device arranged upstream for gas scrubbing. The immersion chamber receives the sulfur in a siphoning manner, wherein the excess sulfur flows at least 4.00 meters deeper from the immersion chamber into a ground-level container in which the immersion chamber is arranged. The invention further relates to a method, by means of which liquid sulfur is conducted into an immersion chamber, wherein the immersion chamber is arranged at a height level below the waste heat boiler and the Claus reactor so that the liquid sulfur reaches the immersion chamber without further pumping and overcomes a height difference of at least 4.00 meters. Sulfur coming from a Claus plant can be stored in an easy and environmentally friendly manner by means of the invention, wherein no pumping devices are required for the sulfur, and complete separation of the sulfur from the combustion gases of the Claus process is possible.</p> |
